The Sha King Hall is sowhat similar to the Southern Heaven Hall, a type of large-scale Spiritual Treasure building, but the Southern Heaven Hall is countless tis more advanced than the Sha King Hall.
"This is the place."
Lu Yu focused his mind, fixing himself atop the do of the Sha King Hall, concentrating entirely on the ntal marks, connecting with the ntal marks left on the mbers of the Sha King Hall.
Vaguely, he heard sounds coming through. The interference from the Sha King Hall was quite severe, and he could only hear the sounds, unable to see the scene near the ntal marks.
But this was actually better, making it more difficult to expose himself.
The vision is easily detected by the keen senses, while listening is not so easily discovered.
"He isn't obedient; why does the High Priest still let him stay in the earth pulse? Wouldn't it be better to replace him with one of our own people?"
"Hush, don't speak so loudly. These matters aren't for us to manage. It's best if we focus on our own tasks. The High Priest has his own ideas."
"Moreover, I've heard that the man is the last royal bloodline of the Desert Dynasty, and no one but him can wield the Endless Sand Realm. Without the Endless Sand Realm, even controlling the earth pulse is useless."
"Besides, the earth pulse isn't so easily controlled. If one is in contact with the earth pulse for too long, they will be assimilated by it. By now, he probably doesn't even have a physical body left."
"That terrifying?"
The voice approached from afar.
"The Eye of the Earth Pulse is undergoing changes. Quickly return to your positions. This ti, we must thoroughly lock down Wanyan Shahe's position within the earth pulse."
Lu Yu heard this voice from a distance and recognized its owner, the powerful and hulking man.
He narrowly escaped being crushed by Saroeloi back then, and if it hadn't been for Saroeloi punching him out of the Sha King Hall, he would have had to pay an enormous price to escape.
For so ti afterward, Lu Yu only heard Saroeloi issuing commands and didn't hear any other useful information. He withdrew his focus from the mbers of the Sha King Hall.
After returning to his senses, Lu Yu pondered over several key pieces of information he had heard. Although it sounded like a very ordinary conversation, by combining it with what he previously knew from the Sha King Hall, he could deduce a few conclusions.
The man he saw in the earth pulse, nad Wanyan Shahe, is the royal bloodline orphan of the Desert Dynasty. He possesses an ability called the Endless Sand Realm, which is the foundation for the Sha King Hall to establish the "Ten Thousand Miles Cliff Great Wall."
Currently, it seems Wanyan Shahe has his own agenda and has fallen out with the Sha King Hall. He did not follow the Sha King Hall's plan to build the Ten Thousand Miles Cliff Great Wall to isolate the Western Desert and the Grand Zhou, but instead created a Yellow Sand Giant Army to attack the Grand Zhou's cities.
These speculations correspond to the mission requirents and also confirm Lu Yu's deductions to be mostly correct.
If Lu Yu's deductions are indeed correct, then there's a great deal to consider about the order in which the missions should be completed.
Objective 3, to kill Wanyan Shahe, must be placed after missions 6 and 7. Otherwise, once Wanyan Shahe is dead, there would be no "Ten Thousand Miles Cliff Great Wall" to speak of.
After so thought, Lu Yu determined the optimal mission completion order — 6, 7, 2, 3, 1.
The only uncertainty is how to proceed with mission objective 6, which involves helping the Sha King Hall build the Ten Thousand Miles Cliff Great Wall, and to what extent this must be done for the task to be considered complete.
If the level of involvent is too high, he would certainly be seen as betraying the Grand Zhou faction, so he needs to gauge the completion level carefully.
He must complete the mission without appearing too much like "assisting the enemy," lest the faction alignnt shift.
Objective 7, to destroy the Ten Thousand Miles Cliff Great Wall, Objective 2, to prevent the Yellow Sand Giant Army from breaching the city, and Objective 3, to kill Wanyan Shahe, can all be accomplished simultaneously.
Lu Yu is unsure whether the Ten Thousand Miles Cliff Great Wall would inevitably be destroyed following the death of Wanyan Shahe.
Until the results are in, all speculations remain highly uncertain.
He took one last look at the Sha King Hall and then turned to pass through the sand current wall, leaving the underground.
Next cos waiting quietly for the actions of the Sha King Hall. At the right mont, he will fan the flas, enabling the Sha King Hall to successfully establish the Ten Thousand Miles Cliff Great Wall, before moving on to the next step.
